Ambassador: The Evolution of Ingress Gateway at HelloFresh | by Anton Ustyuzhanin | Jan, 2021 | HelloTech

admin 1 week ago in

Managing ingress traffic is important to HelloFresh. While our applications infrastructure evolved from virtual machines to Kubernetes, our API gateway was still legacy, lacking some important features.

admin 3 weeks ago in

One of the first things I usually do after spinning up a GKE cluster is to secure HTTP traffic to backends by setting up an API Gateway called KrakenD. In addition to security, we can use KrakenD to route traffic to different namespaces since GKE’s Ingress doesn’t allow for routing across namespaces at this stage. We are also going to see one of the ways…

#51 — Kong et la gestion d’API avec Thibault Charbonnier – Stéphane Beuret – Medium

admin 3 months ago in

Les API, pour Application Programming Interface, ont totalement bouleversé la manière d’écrire un service Web. Aujourd’hui, elles sont quasiment incontournables, d’une part parce qu’elles simplifient le développement d’applications, et d’autre part, parce qu’elles établissent un contrat documenté avec leurs consommateurs. Créées aux début des années 2000, elles se sont popularisées par la suite, jusqu’à voir leur nombre exploser avec l’arrivée des micro services. Mais à…
